Tafsir — Al-A'raf 173

اما ستمکارانشان سخنی که به آن فرمان داده شده بودند را تبدیل کردند و به جای طلب آمرزش که به گفتنش امر شده بودند، گفتند: «حَبَّة فی شعرة» (یعنی گندم، پس به جای طلب آمرزش درخواست امور دنیوی کردند)، و کاری که به انجامش فرمان داده شده بودند را تغییر دادند، چنان که به جای وارد شدن همراه با تواضع و فرو آوردن سرهایشان، در حالی که بر نشیمنگاه های خویش می خزیدند، وارد شدند، پس به سبب ستمشان از آسمان بر آنان عذابی فرو فرستادیم.

And We divided them into twelve tribes (as distinct) nations. We revealed to Musa when his people asked him for water (saying): "Strike the stone with your stick," and there gushed forth out of it twelve springs, each group knew its own place for water. We shaded them with the clouds and sent down upon them the manna and the quail (saying): "Eat of the good things with which We have provided you." They harmed Us not but they used to harm themselves (160)And (remember) when it was said to them: "Dwell in this town (Jerusalem) and eat therefrom wherever you wish, and say, '(O Allah) forgive our sins'; and enter the gate prostrating (bowing with humility). We shall forgive you your wrongdoings. We shall increase (the reward) for the good-doers. (161)But those among them who did wrong, changed the word that had been told to them. So We sent on them a torment from the heaven in return for their wrongdoings (162) We discussed these Ayat in Surat Al-Baqarah, which was revealed in Al-Madinah, while these Ayat were revealed in Makkah. We also mentioned the difference between the two narrations, and thus we do not need to repeat it here, all thanks are due to Allah and all the favors are from Him.

但是，他们中的不义之人更改了真主的命令，他们说：“‘红麦的种子’以此来替代奉命所祈求的饶恕。他们还更改了奉命的行为，即他们仰卧着进了城来替代谦恭为主而低头入城的方式。于是，我因他们的不义而降灾于他们。”
